      I disagree, the bass is louder. But it's good for you general sound imaging... I mean how your brain understands bass (and treble). I have 8 headphones along with the AudioTechnica... I use all sorts of stuff for my audio mixing, and I'm a DJ. These Beyerdynamic 250 ohms are definitely slightly tuned... Definitely! They are my favourite, don't get me wrong though...

    Hi boys, I'm just a fresh graduated sound engineer, I work with the DT 770 Pro 250 Ohms since 2 years now and it is real good product, very strong (compared to the Sennheiser HD25, which tend to break on the left ear, known problem), the frequency response is really flat, and it is really good for mixing, and sound taking on a field ! Comfortable, though it may feel heavy when you use it for hours, and make your ears feel hot (is it clear ?) pretty quickly.10/10 recommended ! Have a good day boys and Thanks Oliver for your work !

    • @akakerness6396

      How hot? I tried them at my local Guitar Center and they were really comfortable and not heavy at all. I'm worry about the hot part that you mentioned (I tend to sweat a lot during the summer)Also, the ear pads on the Dt 990 pro are better than the 770.

    • @JanusJanavas

      Frequency response is flat? Are you kidding me? It is NOT flat by any means.
      Very little headphones can produce flat response, or anything even close to flat response.

  • @TheRecon4
    @TheRecon4 5 лет назад +10

    As an Electrical Engineer I believe the reason why the higher impedance headphones tend to produce better sound is due to the fact that they are less susceptible to picking up noise from the environment which causes interference. You may have experienced a cheap pair of headphones before with poor shielding around its wires that leads to odd hums or pops if you leave the cable on top or near another electronic device that creates significant electromagnetic radiation. With higher impedance drivers it's easier to ensure that only the frequencies driven by your amp are getting to your ears and not other distortion form ambient sources of electromagnetic radiation. Edit: After a little research apparently the extra impedance is also a result of more turns of wire in the voice coils of the drivers which means that the drivers in the higher impedance models are actually more powerful.

  • @floridacapo
    @floridacapo 5 лет назад +17

    Great review, very helpful and your description is accurate to how these sound. I bought these and a Schiit Modi/Magni combo to run them. Together with a good FLAC song, I see how audio experienced like this can make your eyes water. I think I want to cry realizing what I have been missing out on all these years using cheap gaming headsets for music.
    I wanted at least one closed back set and these looked good for the price point. Looking to get some Sennheiser 650s or something similar next. Slippery slope they say. Thanks!

    @JM-nh8yp 4 года назад +1

    Many people prefer the 80 ohms because the bass goes deeper, not more bass, just more range. And the treble on the 80s is just high enough but not overdone and painful like the 250 ohm. Normally the higher the ohm, the better. But not on the 770s.
    Good review of these though

    Hello. From previous watched videos (including yours lol!) I'm sold on the BeyerDynamic DT770 Headphones. I am a bit confused as to which is best for me overall. I don't wish to purchase two sets of headphones. I need one pair, for now, that will serve more than one purpose. I am a singer as well as a voice-over actress. My main desire for the headphones at this time is for voice over. But with some of my voice over opportunities, the character needs to be able to sing. Will the 250 ohms be ok if I don't have a mic amp? (I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THAT IS LOL!)- but I do have an interface that's been in the box for 3 years that I'm now having to learn how to use. Forgive me, I'm still in the learning stage of all of these technical terms lol! I will be recording from a very acoustically dead closet and on my MacBook Pro most likely thru Twisted Wave or adobe audition. Haven't decided yet. I Can't find a video where someone really explains - to make the 32.80-or 250 ohms decision when it comes to voice over work because most are referencing mixing etc. I want to know if the 250 with an interface work perfectly. In one video I watched the gentleman stated that he didn't need a mic amp & that some people (his colleagues) says otherwise & that it was a 50/50 opinion. But his studio was mostly used for music recording.
    I also went to your site on the audition audio presets but didn't understand whatthe prices were for. I'll go back later to explore the site to see if I missed something. Sorry for the mini novel lol! I'm just ready to purchase these headphones. Thanks for posting the video & I look forward to your reply.

I haven’t used them yet bcuz you need to use them through an interface bcuz of its power. My interface software isn’t compatible with my new Mac Air computer software :-( So I have to purchase a different interface- which I haven’t done yet. I’ll do my best to remember to give an update review when I get my new interface.

    Hello Oliver, very insightful review. For vinyl record listening enjoyment, which cans would you suggest under $200 USD ? Sibilance is unfortunately common on vintage vinyl via mediocre cart's (IE. 2M Red), and thus I would prefer less analytical cans, but with decent kick, transparent mids, constrained fatiguing highs. Cheers !

    So I've been mixing with M50x's for about a year, and get really bad ear fatigue from how harsh the high end is, they just broke and I ordered 770pro's to switch it up a bit, and now I'm questioning it because you said that the high end on these are higher than the m50x's which was already giving me bad ear fatigue. Now I'm nervous lol. Most of what I've read online said that the m50x's have way crispier harsher high end. I'm not sure what to believe. I guess I'm going to just have to try them

      My mixes have even improved and are translating way better almost immediately. High end definitely crispy maybe about the same as M50x's but with more clarity, and overall sound is more balanced and less muddy than the M50x's.
      Listening through some FLAC files the first time was exactly as you described. Chills!
      Definitely worth the switch! NEVER going back.

    • @OliverJHughes
      @OliverJHughes  5 лет назад +2

      What up Lando!
      Here’s the deal, the pros and cons are pretty varied between those three - first of all, beyerdynamic isn’t Bluetooth, or noise cancelling, and doesn’t have a big low end. So consider that- those are probably not good on the go cans, but GREAT for listening at home or mixing.
      XM3s are the worlds best noise cancelling. Just phenomenal. Also, light and comfy. Don’t sound too great though.
      And of course the nuras are really heavy, feel odd, but sound just phenomenal. So damn good. Huge bass, etc...
      On the go? Travel? I’d go Sony
      At home with accurate sound? Beyerdynamic
      A tech forward unique experience with outstanding bass? For both on the go and home? Nura

The volume wasn't loud enough for me with this setup, so I bought a PreSonus HP4 amplifier, which sorted the volume issue out, but now I have lost the feature of direct monitoring (without latency) that the KA6 provides when recording through a mic into Ableton. What do you think is the solution for this? Is there an audio interface I can switch to that gives me both the amplifying + the direct monitoring feature in one piece of gear?

  • @miss.wright3035
    @miss.wright3035 4 года назад

    The higher the impedance, the less resistance there is. And therefore an amp is required to pwoer them. It's like using 16ohm tower speakers on a cheap pyramid amp versus 4ohm spkrs with a Krell or McIntosh. 32ohm cans have alot of resistance and therefore little iphones can drive them. A 250ohm set of cans requires more mW cause they have less resistance and are thirsty for pwr. Therefore the thirstier the cans, the better sound they will project. There's no replacement for impedance displacement !

    • @compuholic82
      @compuholic82 4 года назад

      You've got it backwards. Impedance is the AC equivalent to resistance. For DC circuits, impedance is the same as resistance. So roughly speaking high impedance is the same as high resistance. A high resistance means you need a higher voltage to put the same amount of current through a wire. Amps are limited in both their maximum voltage and current output. For high impedance headphones you are more likely to run into the voltage limit and for extremely low impendance headphones you are more likely to run into the current limit.

    Sennheisers are 300ohm but have higher sensitivity, so may be even easier to drive than DT770Pros 250ohm that have 96db sensitivity, which is bit less than lets say senns.

These cans have a lot more clarity than the 380s, with a similar amount of sound dampening (just blocking of sound because the cans are well padded). So if you wanted a better sound, I would go with the DT770 Pros 32ohm version. A bit more expensive than the 380s but so so worth it!
